Siena Baseball dropped both ends of a twin bill in its weekend return to Tennessee. Regional rival Binghamton edged the Saints 3-2 in the opener, with host East Tennessee taking the nightcap 10-0 in seven innings.
 
Binghamton 3, Siena 2
Binghamton (3-4) scored all three times spanning the first two innings which proved to be enough to prevail in the opener.
 
Logan Haskell homered to lead things off for the Bearcats, who added a pair more in the second on a fielder's choice and an RBI double.
 
Siena (1-7) got on the board in the fifth on the first home run by newcomer Jake Sparks. The Saints closed the deficit to within one on a two-out RBI single from Aidan Paradine in the eighth. Paradine paced the Saints with a pair of hits in the opener.
 
Siena got the tying run aboard with two outs in the ninth, but couldn't advance the runner as the comeback fell short.
 
Alistair Morin settled in to go six strong with six strikeouts, and retired the final six batters he faced while being saddled with the tough-luck loss.
 
Ryan Packard allowed just one run on four hits over six innings to earn the win for Binghamton.  
 
East Tennessee 10, Siena 0 (7)
East Tennessee (7-2) scored in five of its six innings at-bat capped by a five-run sixth to take the nightcap via a mercy rule-shortened seven-inning affair.
 
The host Bucs pounded out 10 hits – including three home runs – and worked six walks. Grant Gallagher homered twice for ETSU, including the front-end of back-to-back shots in the fourth.
 
Joe D'Elia, Sparks, and Vincent Venditti accounted for the three Siena hits.
 
Landon Crumbley went the first six innings allowing just two hits while walking three and striking out five to earn the win for the Bucs.
 
The Saints will look to salvage the weekend when they face host East Tennessee once more Saturday at 4 p.m.
